XPG BATTLECRUISER 11 Black

The XPG BATTLECRUISER 11 Black is not just a PC case; it is a masterpiece of engineering designed for gamers and creators who refuse to compromise on aesthetics or thermal performance. As the successor to the highly acclaimed original Battlecruiser, the version II elevates the “Exoskeleton” design language to new heights. Wrapped in four stunning 4mm tempered glass panels, this chassis offers a panoramic view of your high-end components, turning your hardware into a centerpiece of art.

The XPG BATTLECRUISER 11 Black is Crafted from high-quality SPCC steel, the Battlecruiser II provides a robust and sturdy frame that supports a massive range of configurations. Whether you are building a monster workstation with an E-ATX motherboard or a streamlined gaming rig, the spacious interior (550 x 225 x 506 mm) ensures you have the room to breathe. The black finish is sleek and professional, providing the perfect dark canvas for the vibrant ARGB lighting provided by the four pre-installed XPG VENTO 120 fans.

Thermal management is where the Battlecruiser II truly excels. It is designed for high-airflow scenarios, supporting up to a 420mm radiator in the front—a rare feat that ensures even the most power-hungry CPUs stay cool under load. The top panel can house an additional 360mm radiator, allowing for dual-loop water cooling setups that satisfy the most hardcore enthusiasts. The XPG BATTLECRUISER 11 Black With clearance for CPU coolers up to 175mm in height and GPUs up to 395mm in length, this case is ready for the largest flagship components on the market today, including the latest NVIDIA RTX 40-series cards.

Connectivity has been significantly upgraded for the modern era. The I/O panel features a high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 2×6 Type-C port, utilizing a Type E internal connector. This allows for blistering speeds of up to 20Gbps, depending on your motherboard’s capabilities, ensuring your external storage and peripherals perform at their peak. Beyond performance, XPG has focused on the building experience. The case includes a versatile storage layout,The XPG BATTLECRUISER 11 Black supporting up to five 3.5″ HDDs or a mix of 2.5″ SSDs, making it an ideal choice for users with massive libraries of data. Weighing in at a solid 11.7kg, the Battlecruiser II feels premium and vibration-resistant, providing a quiet and stable environment for your high-speed fans and drives.

Why Choose the XPG BATTLECRUISER II Black?

Choosing the right chassis is the most important aesthetic and structural decision of any PC build. The XPG BATTLECRUISER II Black stands out as the premier choice for enthusiasts for several compelling reasons:

The XPG BATTLECRUISER 11 BlackUnmatched Cooling Versatility Most mid-tower cases force you to choose between a large GPU or a large radiator. The Battlecruiser II eliminates that trade-off. With support for a 420mm front radiator, it caters to the extreme cooling requirements of modern processors. The inclusion of four XPG VENTO 120 ARGB fans out of the box means you have an optimized airflow path (three intake, one exhaust) from day one. The “Exoskeleton” design isn’t just for show; it facilitates massive air intake through the gaps between the glass panels, ensuring your internal temperatures remain low even during 4K gaming or heavy video rendering.

Future-Proof Connectivity & Ease of Use XPG has intelligently updated the front I/O to support Type E internal connectors. This is a major selling point for users who own modern motherboards and want to utilize the full 20Gbps potential of USB 3.2 Gen 2×2. No more struggling with the old, stiff IDC 20-pin blue cables; the new routing is cleaner and faster. Additionally, the dedicated LED button on the I/O allows you to cycle through lighting effects instantly, giving you tactile control over your build’s ambiance without needing to open software every time.

Maximum Compatibility for Flagship Hardware As GPUs continue to grow in size, the Battlecruiser II remains ahead of the curve. Its 395mm GPU clearance ensures that even the largest triple-fan cards fit with room to spare for front-mounted fans. The 175mm CPU cooler height means you can fit the world’s largest air coolers, like the Noctua NH-D15, without touching the side glass. Storage is equally impressive; with the ability to house up to eight drives (using the Prime Box), it functions perfectly as a high-end gaming machine and a massive media server simultaneously.

The “Glass House” Aesthetic While many cases use glass on only one side, the Battlecruiser II uses it on four sides (front, top, and both sides). This creates a sophisticated, symmetrical look that is rarely seen. The 4mm tempered glass is thick enough to dampen noise while being crystal clear to showcase your cable management skills and RGB synchronization. It is a case designed for those who take pride in the “look” of their machine as much as its “speed.”
